Live capture of a jazz flamenco concert given by guitarist Juan Carlos Martínez as part of the Festival Flamenco Plus, released in 2015. At the crossroads of jazz and the flamenco tradition, the performance explores the bridges between jazz improvisation, modern harmonies and Andalusian rhythms, in the lineage of the fusions pioneered by Paco de Lucía and the nuevo flamenco scene. The live concert highlights the dialogue between the guitar, the rhythm section and the improvisational spirit of jazz, offering an open, contemporary rereading of the flamenco vocabulary. This filmed capture documents a specialised festival stage where classically trained musicians, jazz players and flamenco performers meet. Between the warmth of the compás and harmonic freedom, the performance illustrates the vitality of a blend that has become one of the most fertile paths of contemporary Spanish music. A live concert to discover for appreciating the encounter between two great improvisation traditions, jazz and flamenco, carried by an instrumentalist of nuanced playing.
